The main point of this post was not to down the forum but to understand what makes an autographed book from him so special and also did I miss something? Is he more valuable to the industry than any other developer?
He wrote a chapter in the book, about getting 3D into Flash in effective ways (I’m quite sure). He’s just putting them up because some of us there wanted him to _I’m getting the book anyway, might as well get it signed by bussey, why not?_ Its not like I’m a culty though, most of the people who are there to praise him have 25 posts (I have 1525 :thumb: )

We just find it funny 🙂

Well you dont have to read or post in it. I am just wondrring why people are sucha fan to him to warrant an autographed book and to send out a global email about it. Thats it and thats all. You obviously have drunk the kool aid. Just not enough to become a fanatic. I was wondering if I missed something he has contributed. For example I would think about supporting Senocular in this manner. Since he has really contributed to the development and graphics scene. I was just thinking maybe I missed something, but I guess I did not. Imagine the uprising if he auctioned off his hat…:lol:

I really don’t see the issue here… if Sen wants to do that then all the power to him (I’d buy something :love: ) but I really don’t see the problem with wanting an autographed book, no matter who it is.

the issue is not the autograph book. I was just wondering did I miss something about him. The response I was hoping to get was “Yeah Billey has helped develop some sweet components and does this that and this”. That’s all maybe I was not in the know about his value in the design world. But if it is just a bunch of folks that idolize him then yes thats cool too. i just wanted to understand the root of offering an autographed book. Like if I popped up and did the same I am sure a thread like this would be created. Because people would want to know who the f&ck I am and what make that offer so special. Ya feel me?

the point of this thread is:
it’s cool that there are flash designers who actually do have groupies 😛
I want groupies too ☹
anyone here willing to be my groupie?
you’ll just have to buy my personal stuff for a lot of money, put some posters over your bed, and cry my name if you see me. (females prefered 😃 )
anyone who buys all the lines of my footer for 20$ each (that will be 28300$) will get a personal meeting with me for free

can I get only the important ones? and how much whitespace? can I buy just one line with all of it because all the whitespace has been taken out?

No 😜
actually the lines are sold on a random base, and you will have to collect them 😛

[AS]this.onEnterFrame=function() {[/AS]
or
[AS]}[/AS]

of course you could, but how likely is it that you get 1415 times one of those lines?
if you collect 5 times the same line you can exchange it to another line you specify !!!for free!!! 😃

mcgiver - what if you put random line of code at the end of your footer (like after you beat the last part) - and made it like a “collect them all” thing?
hehe
